Dec 2, 2007 Draught @ Brewery tap, Birrificio Italiano, Lurago Marinone (CO), Italy. Wow what a pilsner .... Light unclear medium yellow color with a average, frothy, excellent lacing, fully lasting, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, caramel, heavy hoppy, grass, citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to heavy bitter with a long long duration, and a very nice dry finish. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. THIS IS THE BEST TASTING PILSNER I HAVE TASTED - Well made Agostino. ;o)) (081107)

May 20, 2002 Gold pilsner, beautiful head. Nice hop aroma. Dry, heavily hopped, bitter; fruity hop. Palate long, bitter, not so aromatic.

Nov 20, 2006 Draught Beautifully presented with huge white head, like whipped cream and a hopcone on top of it, over golden beer. The hopbell has to go - it prevents the extremely malty/toasted nose to be perceived. Strangely, I get a nose of Croque Monsieur ... Very malty (!yes!!) beer, very dry malt, and strangely enough, one gets the dryness of dry-hopping without the taste. Crisp finish, with honey, in the good sense of the word ’crisp’. Retronasal finally more hop flavours. Light to medium bodied, long fading flavours. Calling this a "surprise" is not doing this right. I’m sorry about the Croque, but it’s spot-on. I cannot for the love of God understand why the Tipopils, its base is really hoppy and refreshing, is finally better than this maltbomb, posing as hoppy...

Dec 13, 2007 On draught at the brewpub.
Light cloudy, yellow colour with big, creamy, steady head, topped with a hopcone. Looks yummy indeed. Great modern style pils aroma with wood, cedar and flowers from Hallertauer Mittelfrûh I belive. Dry, crips mouthfeel with flowers and citrus. Good hoppy, almost salty finish. Hops speak here, not the malts. Great beer!

Nov 20, 2008 On tap at Salone del Gusto 2008. Hazy golden, big head. Pure grassy hop aroma with good grassy bitterness. Great craftmanship.

Nov 26, 2009 Alla spina all’Isola della Birra a Milano, con tortellini panna e prosciutto; era un po’ che volevo assaggiare questa Extra Hop. Il Birrificio Italiano si conferma il re della pilsner italiana con questo prodotto che, se non riesce ad eguagliare le migliori Tipopils assaggiate, offre una seducente e delicata alternativa. L’abbinamento coi tortellini nzomm, ma volevo magnare quelli

Dec 25, 2007 Yet another fantastic pilsener offering from B.I. Great floral, not too hoppy despite the name, nose and crisp cleansing -- basically a slightly lighter, perhaps summerier, version of the world-class Tipopils.
